parent DN and deref control
by Michael Ströder 02 Oct '15

02 Oct '15

Hmm... I have a use-case where it would be handy to use the deref control to request attributes from an entry's parent entry. But this would require kind of a pseudo-attribute 'parentDN' (similar to 'entryDN'). Anybody aware whether such a thing is already available? [1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-masarati-ldap-deref-00 Nope, I don't want to use collective attributes. Ciao, Michael.

cannot delete pwdFailureTime attribute
by David Magda 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hello, How do I delete the pwdFailureTime attribute on a slave? I have a DN where pwdFailureTime entries are growing and its slowly filling up /var/lib/ldap/. Ive tried the following LDIF: dn: uid=foo,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modify delete: pwdFailureTime But since the system is slave, its giving ldapmodify(1) a redirect to the master. I've also tried the script in ITS#8185: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-bugs/201507/msg00012.html that connects to ldapi:///, and that also referral/redirects (since we have olcUpdateRef configured). We are not using the slapo-chain(5) funcionality. Is there any way to manipulate pwdFailureTime on the slaves without going into the raw databases files? Or do we have to enable slapo-chain(5) when using slapo-ppolicy(5) and then do things on the master? Thanks for any info. Regards, David

How to build contrib pw-radius?
by dev 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hi, I'm trying to build the pw-radius module in the contrib directory but can't seem to find the right library to add to the incantation. I've tried installing the freeradius-dev package as well as the libradiusclient-ng-dev but still no radlib.h. A google on the error message[1] returns *exactly* two results so I'm kind of at a loss. Can someone point me in the direction of the correct radius package to install to get this built? [1] test# gcc -shared -I../../../include -Wall -g -o pw-radius.so radius.c -lradius radius.c:27:20: fatal error: radlib.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.

by Christian Balz 01 Oct '15

Hi for all, We have an application that search an attribute named 'manager', however in our OpenLDAP this attribute is called 'DomainGestor'. Is it possible to create something like an alias or mapping. So, when the application is called the attribute 'manager' the ldap return the value of 'DomainGestor' DomainGestor uid=userX,cn=u,cn=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com Regards Christian
